本片聚焦第一波新冠疫情中受到极大冲击的英国护理中心。
在利物浦一个虚构的护理中心，一名年轻的护工（Jodie Comer）和一位病人（Stephen Graham），两人的生活因春季爆发的新冠疫情而永远改变。
Sarah很聪明，但在学习和工作 中一直都不合群。家人认为她注定一事无成，但她意外地发现在阳光护理中心做一名护理员，是自己的使命所在。Sarah十分善于和护理中心的居住者沟通，尤其是47岁的Tony。Tony患有早发型阿尔茨海默病，大脑逐渐退化，这让他不得不住进护理中心。疾病导致他产生间歇性困惑和突发暴力行为，其他员工都难以应对，但在Sarah的照顾下，他开始逐渐与她交心。Sarah在护理病人上的成功，帮助她重拾了自信心。
当2020年3月新冠疫情爆发，Sarah所取得的一切成就都遭到了质疑。她和同事们在装备不全、准备不足的情况下，竭尽全力地抗击着疫情，而当局却似乎并不在意他们。坚定不移的Sarah想方设法保护着自己负责护理的人们，这些人的病情使得他们在面对折磨和孤独感时，更加痛苦。但护理中心员工们的坚持、不懈努力和无私奉献，起到的作用十分有限，Sarah被逼入了绝境，迫切想要找到一条出路。
英国护理院在此次疫情中受到的冲击尤为严重，超过1.9万名的居住者因新冠死亡。护理院是英国目前实施最严格封锁措施的地方之一，因担心在脆弱人群感染，居住者无法以任何重要方式见到所爱之人。

本片由莎士比亚的著名悲剧改编而成，该剧以中世纪的丹麦宫廷为背景，通过哈姆雷特为父报仇的故事，借古喻今，真实的描绘了文艺复兴时期欧洲和英国社会社会的现实与矛盾，宫廷中尔虞我诈，社会上民怨沸腾，人文主义理想在这个罪恶当道的社会已无法实现。

An American art dealer (Miguel Sandoval), who specializes in southwestern topaz, arrives by train in Liverpool. Similarly, a very proper British art dealer (Alex Cox), who specializes in African art, arrives in the same hotel. The two meet in the hotel's abandoned restaurant and decide to set off in finding an evening meal, which becomes problematic immediately when the Brit reveals he is vegetarian. While following their pursuit of a mutually acceptable meal, the main point of the film is their discourse en route to their various attempts at an eatery.
